For twelve years, she believed she and her husband were making the same sacrifice: saying no to little comforts now so their two children could have more choices later.
But in their Chicago suburb, every grocery receipt, dance fee, and discussion about their aging family car seemed to turn into a budget meeting she hadn’t been invited to lead.
